I just read on an older post that they are taking the scope off of the pistol. I hope this isn't true, cause the current pistol is my favorite weapon. Does anybody know if this rumor is true?

Since it's a rumor, nobody really knows if it's true. I think they should either keep it in the game how it was or take it out completely. Changing it would just make people mad. I think there's a good chance we'll see a new pistol, like the one mentioned in First Strike.

There's also a rumor floating around that says that the Pistol is not going to be in Halo 2 at all. The new Assault Rifle (not the Battle Rifle) is supposed to be a mix between the Pistol and th AR. No one knows if the Pistol is going to make it back in.

The pistol and MA5B assault rifle are both returning, but Bungie said that they're changing them a bit.

There are 10 kinds of people in the world: those who know binary, and those who don't.

u do realize the the battle rifle was described as a mix between the pistol and the assault rifle. r u sure ur not confused? either way, bungie has for a long time now been saying that all old weapons will return, tho possibly slightly edited and new ones will be there as well(obviously). dont worry people, you'll still have ur beloved pistol, although u may have second thoughts about sticking so strictly to it all the time after u get ur hands on some of this other new stuff we've been hearing about(and stuff we havent been hearing about)

THE PISTOL AND ASSAULT RIFLE IS GONE! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT THE BATTLE RIFLE IS THE PISTOL AND ASSAULT PUT TOGETHER?! WHO NEEDS BOTH WHEN YOU'VE GOT IT IN ONE?

Will you shut the hell up. Take your font off caps. Don't be spreading false information. The pistol and assault rifle are both returning, as I've said before, don't make me quote Jamie Griesemer.

I don't see any place for the assault rifle anymore. And I thought the battle rifle was supposed to be replacing the AR as the standard rifle?

I believe that the pistol will come back as seen in first strike, with the new assault rifle, though i dont think the old assault rifle will. Well, i hope theres gonna be an energy blade or maybe some dropship pilotin. Wouldnt that be cool?

the dropship is meant to be the only vehicle you can't drive/pilot in Halo2

Yeah, I think the pistol will be replaced with the HE Pistol from First Strike...and I think there was a modified MA5B in Fall of Reach, like the MA2B or something, maybe that will be the new AR.

In an interview somewhere, it says that you'll be able to visit the cockpit of a dropship, but not pilot one, though it would be pretty cool if you could. Especially on live, you could transport your whole team and supplies. Kind of like MechAssault 2 is supposed to be with the VTOL's.

Wow, how many more children are going to pop out of no where. As for the Pistol, I haven't heard anything on it in a while.

What would be the point of bringing back the MA5B. nobody likes it. the only thing its good for is raping grunts on easy. Also who would want to use the MA5B when youve got an MA5B with a scope.
